...chances are good that the Wildcats will win again today in the 62nd annual running of the meet at New York City's Van Cortland Park. The race begins...
While Pike was revealing his mysterious encounters, the Episcopal Church finally agreed that the freethinking bishop will not be tried for heresy. The church's 62nd general convention in Seattle overwhelmingly approved a canonical change making it extremely difficult to initiate action against any prelate accused of unorthodoxy. Under past laws, a request for a heresy trial required the signatures of three bishops, approval by a ten-member board of inquiry. Now a complaint must be signed by no fewer than ten bishops, and requires a two-thirds majority of the House of Bishops before a trial...
...book begins with Marshall's appointment as Chief of Staff on Sept. 1, 1939, the day Hitler's armor moved into Poland, and ends on Dec. 31, 1942, with his 62nd birthday party (sherry and cake) in the Pentagon-and with Rommel still in Africa and the Red army just hanging on at Stalingrad. Between those dates lay a Pikes Peak of paper. This has been industriously mined and smelted down by his official historian, Dr. Forrest C. Pogue, combat historian in World War II and currently director of the George C. Marshall Research Center, a private foundation...
...never occurred to the Dodgers to worry. They were too busy being happy about going back to their own carefully tailored ballpark, with its concrete infield, bunt-favoring baselines and hard-to-reach fences. To celebrate that (and Owner Walter O'Malley's 62nd birthday), Pitcher Claude Osteen-an American League castoff whose lifetime record against Minnesota is 6-0-shut out the Twins on five hits. The Dodgers pounded a succession of Minnesota pitchers for ten-including five doubles. Los Angeles won 4-0. Back home-sweet home, back in the Series...
...based Canadian Breweries (Carling, Red Cap Ale) is the world's largest maker of beer and ale. Cornerstone of the financial and industrial empire of Financier Edward Plunket Taylor, it has not only grabbed a commanding 47% of the Canadian market, but has also pushed its brew from 62nd to fourth place in the U.S. since 1949. It has moved into England, Scotland and Ireland by buying control of local companies, now stands among Britain's top three in lager beer. It is working out a deal to make beer in Hong Kong, is also shipping half-brewed...
